Since I couldn't ID the photo I wasn't even sure who it actually was, so I didn't perceive my self as costing anyone money, more I was thinking the opposite. What I was not considering was the collateral issue with the sellers other auctions and for that Jaybird I do apologize. Yes I will absolutely wait until the end of auctions to post similar questions. I wasn't even interested in bidding on any of his auctions, just kind of stuck on trying to ID that photo which led me to not think of unintended consequences.
Seriously not a big deal. Since I was asked why I said what I said, I responded. The auction was open for 7 days. You asked your question 2 hours before closing. I think what struck me was more the timing than the question itself. I don't think I would have said anything if the question came up in day 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 or even the last day. But it was the last hours question that struck a nerve.

Again, no big deal. But since there was a question of my motivation, I figured I would explain.
